Cohen's Lifestyle Newbie

[Fitby40]

Hi all

Finally I have found a site dedicated to The Cohen's Diet. YeeHaa! I have been on Cohen’s for 14 weeks and have lost 14.9kgs. I wish I had found this site much earlier in the piece . I'm 1.1kg from my goal weight and have just received my re-feed.

So far I haven't found it difficult at all over the last 15 weeks, but I'm a little concerned with Christmas just around the corner - more so because my re-feed will be complete and I think I'm going to feel a bit venerable. I'm spending Xmas with family. Who, bless them, love to see people eating!!! One family member nearly fell over backwards when he saw me last week for the 1st time since I started the diet and I haven't seen anyone else yet so it will be a huge surprise. It's not so much the pressure to eat that concerns me, it's more my ability to keep my head around all that food and alcohol: D.

Is there anyone else out there who is about to start re-feed? I would love chat to anyone who's about to go there.

Hi Fitby40

I have not even started yet, I only wanted to say congratulations. I visited Cohen's for a session today and will join in the new year as soon as they are back from holidays I don't want to jeopardise anything starting now and not having that support.
If it helps the consultant said she added foods back gradually into her refeed and anything that made her feel bloated or unwell she cut out alltogether.
She said she has a couple of wines on the weekend and has her treats then but stays pretty healthy rest of week and has maintained for over a year.
all the best. Sam

Thanks Sam

I first went and saw the 'Cohen's lady' over 12 months ago, but just wasn't convinced at the time that the diet was what I was looking for. I was a little concerned about giving up what I thought at the time was so much. Finally, when all else failed I signed up. It was best decision I've made in a long time. I just wish I hadn't waited so long!!

Once I complete the re-feed I'm thinking that I will try to stick with the re-feed principles 100% of the time during the week and 80 - 90% of the time on the week-ends. That sounds fair

Wish you loads of success when you sign up.
